They are lost to Jesus and the kingdom of heaven becuase they do not have Faith. They do do believe Jesus is our Lord and Savior. They do not know what it is to be loved with Agape love from Jesus.. They lean to their own understanding which cause them to wonder. Wonder in this world looking for something they they will never get until they accept Jesus in their lives.. Their soul and spirit is lost.

Thsoe who do not know Jesus can be used to compare with a los sheep in the sense that a Sheep can not go without a shephard.And a lost sheep is that who mised road. That mised road sheep cannot, I said cannot come back accept someone leading it home. Therefore, on this I understand that He who mised road does not have a shephard which is JESUS CHRIST. When Christ is not in you, is likely that you will do otherwise, you must act in a strange way. You behave any how, talking any how. Become drunker, arrogant that is every illicite behaviour will be found in you. And since we know that a lost sheep is important to the shephard we must make sure to help the owner to locate or find them.

I dislike putting it this way, but, sheep are very unintelligent creatures. Without someone to guide them, they can often walk into dangerous situations or get lost. People that don`t know Jesus are like lost sheep, because they will stumble around, often times putting themselves in harms way, and instead of drawing closer to shelter, they walk further away. They may even see the Good Shepherd, but once they are lost, panic sets in, and they don`t know which direction to go. It takes patience and loving kindness to bring these lost sheep back to the fold.

They are like lost sheep because the lost sheep knows the way it is taking is the right way to get home and do not matter how far or short it will be for it.
Those who do not know Jesus live their life the way it suit their mind and heart and do not think of someones protection, direction and catering.. They live life to their own imagination.

Those who don`t know Christ behave in their own culture which sometimes does not follow the life Christ needs us to live.
Those who don`t know Jesus break the `Love your neighbor as yourself` and `love the Lord your God with all your strength and heart` commandments in everyday life they live. Amen

See that you don't despise one
of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always
see the face of my Father who is in heaven. For the Son of Man came to save
that which was lost.
"What do you think? If a
man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doesn't he leave
the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray?
If he finds it, most
certainly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine
which have not gone astray. Even so it is not the will of
your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
